1: dumbbell press 4x8
2: incline bench 3x8
3: flies 4x8
4a: shoulder press 4x8
4b: lateral raises 4x6
5: tricep rope...
Hi everybody.
Just wanted to get some feedback on my training regime. Essentially I'm early thirties had a beer belly but I've done about 6 months of cardio and weights so have stripped it mostly off. I have started working harder on my abs but they only seem to be forming on the upper chest...
I'm still sticking to different variations of Crunches and Reverse Crunches. Don't do many Planks or the new fangaled stuff.

Hi All,
Just switched from seated overhead press (slight incline), to standing again.
I realised my grip was way too wide (on the gnurling), and have bought my grip into should width as per the various form guidelines on "proper form". Generally I feel stronger like this too with less shoulder...

So finally started making progress with bench, getting a bit heavier (for me), and starting to see a difference
Then, bloody incline bench, too much too soon and got a twinge in my right shoulder. Stopped, felt ok, took all the weight off and lifted the bar, to try and "feel" what was going on...

SOLD.
Grab yourself a bargain, this bench has a RRP of $695. The cheapest I can find retail is $530 new from gymandfitness.
This piece of equipment is in pristine condition, I simply did not use it a great deal and sadly, space is at a premium in my home gym. I can attest to the fact that it...
